Such a HUD, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 , includes: a projector 501 that emits projection lights L1, L2, and L3; a projection lens 502 that forms images of the projection lights L1, L2, and L3. On the transmissive screen 503; the transmissive screen 503, the transmissive screen 503 receives the projection light L1, L2, L3 from the projection lens 502 through the back, forms a real image, diffuses on its outer side, and emits image light representing a real image Plane mirror 504, concave mirror 505, the plane mirror 504, concave mirror 505 make the image light M1, M2, M3 diffused by the transmissive screen 503 toward the windshield (projection reflection surface) 510 of the vehicle.

发明内容Contents of the invention
发明要解决的课题The problem to be solved by the invention
但是,像专利文献1那样,在来自投射透镜502的投影光L原样地投影于透射型屏幕503上的场合,从透射型屏幕503而射出的配光轴M1a、M2a、M3a的朝向与投影光L1、L2、L3基本相同。由此,从透射型屏幕503的规定区域而射出的图像光M1、M3的光路不沿朝向观察者的视点520的光路P1、P3(配光轴M1a、M3a不与光路P1、P3一致)。由此,由于到达观察者的视点520的图像光M弱,故具有观察者辨认的虚像的亮度降低的危险。另外,由于通过透射型屏幕503的各区域而扩散的光路的图像光M1、M3的配光轴M1a、M3a没有沿朝向观察者的视点520的光路P1、P3,故图像光M1、M3的光利用效率降低。However, as in Patent Document 1, when the projection light L from the projection lens 502 is projected onto the transmissive screen 503 as it is, the orientations of the light distribution axes M1a, M2a, and M3a emitted from the transmissive screen 503 are different from those of the projected light. L1, L2, and L3 are basically the same. As a result, the optical paths of the image lights M1 and M3 emitted from the predetermined area of the transmissive screen 503 do not follow the optical paths P1 and P3 toward the viewpoint 520 of the observer (the optical distribution axes M1a and M3a do not coincide with the optical paths P1 and P3). Accordingly, since the image light M reaching the viewpoint 520 of the observer is weak, the brightness of the virtual image recognized by the observer may decrease. In addition, since the light distribution axes M1a, M3a of the image light M1, M3 of the optical path diffused through each area of the transmissive screen 503 do not follow the optical path P1, P3 toward the viewer's viewpoint 520, the light of the image light M1, M3 Utilization efficiency is reduced.
于是,本发明是针对上述实际情况而提出的,本发明的目的在于,提供可以良好的效率,使图像光朝向观察者的平视显示装置。Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned actual situation, and an object of the present invention is to provide a head-up display device capable of efficiently directing image light toward a viewer.

(配光调整机构16的作用)(The role of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16)
首先,参照图2(a)对从第2方向Y观看配光调整机构16时的配光调整机构16的作用进行说明。另外,从图2(a)所示的投影面13a而射出的投影光100(投影光101、投影光102、投影光103)为形成观察者辨认的上述虚像的上下方向的光,投影光101形成上述虚像的下端,投影光102形成上述虚像的上下中间附近,投影光103形成上述虚像的上端。First, the operation of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 when the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 is viewed from the second direction Y will be described with reference to FIG. 2( a ). In addition, the projection light 100 (projection light 101, projection light 102, and projection light 103) emitted from the projection surface 13a shown in FIG. The lower end of the above-mentioned virtual image is formed, the projection light 102 forms near the upper and lower middle of the above-mentioned virtual image, and the projection light 103 forms the upper end of the above-mentioned virtual image.
从投影面13a的各区域射出的投影光100(投影光101、投影光102、投影光103)经由投射透镜15射入配光调整机构16。配光调整机构16按照使透射型屏幕17所射出的图像光201、图像光202、图像光203的配光轴201a、配光轴202a、配光轴203a大致沿朝向可视范围3的光路P1、光路P2、光路P3的方式使射入透射型屏幕17中的投影光101、投影光102、投影光103折射。The projection light 100 (projection light 101 , projection light 102 , and projection light 103 ) emitted from each area of the projection surface 13 a enters the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 via the projection lens 15 . The light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 makes the light distribution axis 201a, light distribution axis 202a, and light distribution axis 203a of the image light 201, image light 202, and image light 203 emitted by the transmissive screen 17 roughly along the optical path P1 toward the visible range 3 The projection light 101 , the projection light 102 , and the projection light 103 incident on the transmissive screen 17 are refracted in the manner of the optical path P2 and the optical path P3 .
在第1方向X,配光调整机构16将射入到与配光调整机构16的光轴离开的位置的投影光100(投影光101、投影光103)以较大程度而折射,将其射出到透射型屏幕17侧。具体来说,配光调整机构16以角度θ1使投影光101倾斜而射出到配光调整机构16的光轴侧,以角度θ3使投影光103倾斜而射出到配光调整机构16的光轴侧。另外,沿配光调整机构16的光轴的投影光102没有通过配光调整机构16而折射(没有通过配光调整机构16而调整配光),而成像于透射型屏幕17上,作为图像光202射出。配光调整机构16伴随与配光调整机构16的光轴的离开,使投影光100的调整量(倾斜的角度)增加。In the first direction X, the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 largely refracts the projection light 100 (projection light 101, projection light 103) incident to a position away from the optical axis of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16, and emits it. To the transmissive screen 17 side. Specifically, the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 inclines the projection light 101 at an angle θ1 to emit to the optical axis side of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16, and inclines the projection light 103 at an angle θ3 to emit to the optical axis side of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16. . In addition, the projection light 102 along the optical axis of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 is not refracted by the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 (the light distribution is not adjusted by the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16), but is imaged on the transmissive screen 17 as image light. 202 shot. The light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 increases the adjustment amount (inclination angle) of the projection light 100 as the optical axis of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 moves away from the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 .
下面参照图2(b),对从第1方向X观看配光调整机构16时的配光调整机构16的作用进行说明。另外,从图2(b)所示的投影面13a射出的投影光100(投影光104、投影光105、投影光106)为形成观察者辨认的上述虚像的左右方向的光,投影光104形成上述虚像的右端,投影光105形成上述虚像的左右中央附近,投影光106形成上述虚像的左端。Next, the action of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 when the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 is viewed from the first direction X will be described with reference to FIG. 2( b ). In addition, the projection light 100 (projection light 104, projection light 105, and projection light 106) emitted from the projection surface 13a shown in FIG. At the right end of the virtual image, the projected light 105 forms the vicinity of the left and right center of the virtual image, and the projected light 106 forms the left end of the virtual image.
从投影面13a的各区域射出的投影光100(投影光104、投影光105、投影光106)经由投射透镜15射入配光调整机构16。配光调整机构16按照使从透射型屏幕17射出的图像光204、图像光205、图像光206的配光轴204a、配光轴205a、配光轴206a大致沿朝向可视范围3的光路P4、光路P5、光路P6的方式使射入透射型屏幕17中的投影光104、投影光105、投影光106折射。The projection light 100 (projection light 104 , projection light 105 , and projection light 106 ) emitted from each area of the projection surface 13 a enters the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 via the projection lens 15 . The light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 makes the light distribution axis 204a, light distribution axis 205a, and light distribution axis 206a of the image light 204, image light 205, and image light 206 emitted from the transmissive screen 17 roughly along the optical path P4 toward the visible range 3 The projection light 104 , the projection light 105 , and the projection light 106 incident on the transmissive screen 17 are refracted in the manner of the optical path P5 and the optical path P6 .
在第2方向Y,配光调整机构16使射入到与配光调整机构16离开的位置的投影光100(投影光104、投影光106)以较大程度折射,将其射出到透射型屏幕17侧。具体来说,配光调整机构16以角度θ4使投影光104倾斜而射出到配光调整机构16的光轴侧,以角度θ6使投影光106倾斜而射出到配光调整机构16的光轴侧。另外,沿配光调整机构16的光轴的投影光105没有通过配光调整机构16而折射(没有通过配光调整机构16而调整配光),而成像于透射型屏幕17上,作为图像光205射出。配光调整机构16伴随与配光调整机构16的光轴的离开,使投影光100的调整量(倾斜的角度)增加。此外,使通过配光调整机构16而于可视范围3的上下方向配光的图像光201、图像光203折射的角度θ1、θ3(调整量)大于使在可视范围3的左右方向配光的图像光204、图像光206折射的角度θ4、θ6(调整量)。In the second direction Y, the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 largely refracts the projection light 100 (projection light 104, projection light 106) incident at a position away from the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16, and emits it to the transmissive screen. 17 sides. Specifically, the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 inclines the projection light 104 at an angle θ4 to emit to the optical axis side of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16, and inclines the projection light 106 at an angle θ6 to emit to the optical axis side of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16. . In addition, the projection light 105 along the optical axis of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 is not refracted by the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 (the light distribution is not adjusted by the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16), but is imaged on the transmissive screen 17 as image light. 205 shots. The light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 increases the adjustment amount (inclination angle) of the projection light 100 as the optical axis of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 moves away from the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 . In addition, the angles θ1 and θ3 (adjustment amount) at which the image light 201 and image light 203 are refracted in the vertical direction of the visible range 3 by the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 are larger than the angles θ1 and θ3 (adjustment amount) that make the light distribution in the left and right directions of the visible range 3 larger. The image light 204 and image light 206 are refracted at angles θ4 and θ6 (adjustment amount).
像以上描述的那样,按照本实施方式的HUD装置1,由于可通过配光调整机构16调整从透射型屏幕17的各区域射出的图像光200的配光,故能以良好的效率使图像光200朝向可视范围3。As described above, according to the HUD device 1 of this embodiment, since the light distribution of the image light 200 emitted from each area of the transmissive screen 17 can be adjusted by the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16, the image light can be efficiently distributed. 200 toward view range 3.
(第2实施方式)(second embodiment)

Fig. 3(a) is a schematic structural view of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16a viewed from the second direction Y, and Fig. 3(b) is a structural schematic view of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16a viewed from the first direction X. In addition, in FIG. 3 , the same reference numerals are assigned to the same configurations as those of the above-mentioned first embodiment, and description thereof will be omitted.
第2实施方式的HUD装置1的不同点在于具有其特性不同于上述第1实施方式的配光调整机构16的配光调整机构16a。第2实施方式的配光调整机构16a由柱状透镜构成,该柱状透镜在第1方向X,具有使投影光100折射的能力,于第2方向Y,不具有使投影光100折射的能力。The HUD device 1 of the second embodiment is different in that it has a light distribution adjustment mechanism 16a whose characteristics are different from those of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 of the above-mentioned first embodiment. The light distribution adjustment mechanism 16a of the second embodiment is composed of a lenticular lens capable of refracting the projection light 100 in the first direction X and not capable of refracting the projection light 100 in the second direction Y.
参照图3(b),对从第1方向X观看第2实施方式的配光调整机构16a时的配光调整机构16a的作用进行说明。The operation of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16a in the second embodiment when the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16a is viewed from the first direction X will be described with reference to FIG. 3(b).
从投影面13a的各区域射出的投影光100(投影光104、投影光105、投影光106)经由投射透镜15射入配光调整机构16a。配光调整机构16a不改变投影光104、投影光105、投影光106的朝向,将这些投影光射出到透射型屏幕17侧。透射型屏幕17射出具有其朝向与从背面射入的投影光104、投影光105、投影光106基本相同的配光轴204a、配光轴205a、配光轴206a的图像光204,图像光205、图像光206。另外,按照配光轴204a、配光轴205a、配光轴206a沿朝向可视范围3的光路P4、光路P5、光路P6的方式,设定来自投影透镜15的投影光104、投影光105、投影光106的投射角度。The projection light 100 (projection light 104 , projection light 105 , and projection light 106 ) emitted from each area of the projection surface 13 a enters the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 a through the projection lens 15 . The light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 a emits the projection light 104 , the projection light 105 , and the projection light 106 to the transmissive screen 17 side without changing the directions of the projection light 104 , 105 , and 106 . The transmissive screen 17 emits image light 204 having substantially the same light distribution axis 204a, light distribution axis 205a, and light distribution axis 206a as the projection light 104, projection light 105, and projection light 106 incident from the back. , image light 206 . In addition, the projection light 104 from the projection lens 15, the projection light 105, The projection angle of the projection light 106 .
同样在这样的结构中,由于通过配光调整机构16a可调整从透射型屏幕17的各区域射出的图像光200的配光,故可以良好的效率使图像光200朝向可视范围3。另外,在配光调整机构16a中,由于仅仅在1个轴方向(第1方向X)具有使投影光100折射的能力,故可容易进行配光调整机构16a的光学设计。Also in such a configuration, since the light distribution of the image light 200 emitted from each area of the transmissive screen 17 can be adjusted by the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16a, the image light 200 can be directed toward the visible range 3 efficiently. In addition, since the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16a has the ability to refract the projection light 100 only in one axial direction (the first direction X), the optical design of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16a can be easily performed.
(第3实施方式)(third embodiment)
第3实施方式的HUD装置1的不同点在于从透射型屏幕17的各区域而射出的图像光201、图像光202、图像光203交叉,在规定的位置形成中间像S2。在下面通过图4、图5,对本发明的第3实施方式进行说明。图4为第3实施方式的HUD装置1的结构示意图,图5(a)为从第2方向Y观看配光调整机构16b时的结构示意图,图5(b)为从第1方向X观看配光调整机构16b时的结构示意图。The HUD device 1 of the third embodiment is different in that the image light 201 , the image light 202 , and the image light 203 emitted from each area of the transmissive screen 17 intersect to form an intermediate image S2 at a predetermined position. Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5 . 4 is a schematic structural view of the HUD device 1 of the third embodiment. FIG. Schematic diagram of the structure of the light adjustment mechanism 16b.
第3实施方式的配光调整机构16b为比如柱状透镜,其接收投影光100,使朝向透射型屏幕17而折射的投影光100射出的光学区域,按照大于透射型屏幕17对实像S1进行成像的区域的方式形成。The light distribution adjustment mechanism 16b of the third embodiment is, for example, a lenticular lens, which receives the projection light 100 and emits the projection light 100 refracted toward the transmissive screen 17 in an optical area larger than that of the transmissive screen 17 to image the real image S1. region is formed.
(配光调整机构16b的作用)(Function of Light Distribution Adjustment Mechanism 16b)
首先,参照图5(a),对从第2方向Y观看配光调整机构16b时的配光调整机构16b的作用进行说明。First, the action of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 b when the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 b is viewed from the second direction Y will be described with reference to FIG. 5( a ).
从投影面13a的各区域射出的投影光100(投影光101、投影光102、投影光103)经由投影透镜15射入到配光调整机构16b。配光调整机构16b按照下述方式使投影光101、投影光102、投影光103折射,将其射出到透射型屏幕17,该方式为:从透射型屏幕17而射出的图像光201、图像光202、图像光203的配光轴201a、配光轴202a、配光轴203a基本沿朝向可视范围3的光路P1、光路P2、光路P3。The projection light 100 (projection light 101 , projection light 102 , and projection light 103 ) emitted from each area of the projection surface 13 a enters the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 b via the projection lens 15 . The light distribution adjustment mechanism 16b refracts the projection light 101, the projection light 102, and the projection light 103 and emits them to the transmissive screen 17 in the following manner: the image light 201 emitted from the transmissive screen 17, the image light 202 , the light distribution axis 201 a , the light distribution axis 202 a , and the light distribution axis 203 a of the image light 203 are basically along the optical path P1 , the optical path P2 , and the optical path P3 toward the visible range 3 .
在第1方向X使射入与配光调整机构16b的光轴离开的位置的投影光100(投影光101、投影光103)大大折射,将其射出到透射型屏幕17侧。具体来说,配光调整机构16b按照朝向配光调整机构16b的光轴侧的方式使投影光101、投影光103倾斜而射出。由于通过像这样,图像光200的整体在作为收敛的同时,朝向第1反射部20,故可通过小型的第1反射部20接收图像光200。配光调整机构16b伴随与配光调整机构16b的光轴的离开,增加投影光100的调整量(倾斜角度)。The projected light 100 (projected light 101, projected light 103) incident at a position away from the optical axis of the light distribution adjusting mechanism 16b is greatly refracted in the first direction X, and is emitted to the transmissive screen 17 side. Specifically, the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 b obliquely emits the projection light 101 and the projection light 103 toward the optical axis side of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 b. In this way, the entirety of the image light 200 is directed toward the first reflection unit 20 while converging, so that the image light 200 can be received by the small first reflection unit 20 . The light distribution adjustment mechanism 16b increases the adjustment amount (inclination angle) of the projection light 100 as the optical axis of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16b moves away from the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16b.
另外,在第3实施方式的HUD装置1中,由于从透射型屏幕17射出的图像光200成像于中间像S2,故通过凹面镜构成第1反射部20b。第1反射部20将通过透射型屏幕17而成像的实像S1的图像光200在第1反射部20和第2反射部30之间,作为中间像S2而成像。中间像S2的成像位于相对第2反射部30的焦点距离的第2反射部30一侧,位于上述第2反射部30的焦点距离附近,由此,可让观察者辨认高倍率的虚像。In addition, in the HUD device 1 according to the third embodiment, since the image light 200 emitted from the transmissive screen 17 is formed into an image on the intermediate image S2, the first reflecting portion 20b is constituted by a concave mirror. The first reflection unit 20 forms the image light 200 of the real image S1 formed by passing through the transmissive screen 17 as an intermediate image S2 between the first reflection unit 20 and the second reflection unit 30 . The intermediate image S2 is formed on the side of the second reflector 30 relative to the focal length of the second reflector 30 , and is located near the focal distance of the second reflector 30 , thereby allowing the observer to recognize a high-magnification virtual image.
像以上说明的那样,在第3实施方式的HUD装置1中,通过配光调整机构16b,使从透射型屏幕17的各区域射出的图像光200的配光轴200a朝向配光调整机构16b的光轴侧,由此,可通过小型的第1反射部20,以良好的效率而产生中间像S2。As described above, in the HUD device 1 of the third embodiment, the light distribution axis 200a of the image light 200 emitted from each area of the transmissive screen 17 is directed toward the direction of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16b by the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16b. On the optical axis side, the intermediate image S2 can be efficiently generated by the small first reflection unit 20 .
本发明不限于以上的实施方式和附图。在不改变本发明的实质的范围内,可适当进行变更(还包括删除结构元件)。在下面给出变形例子的一个例子。The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and drawings. Modifications (also including deletion of structural elements) can be appropriately made within a range that does not change the essence of the present invention. An example of a modified example is given below.
在上述实施方式中,使来自投影透镜15的投影光100折射的配光调整机构16为自由曲面透镜、柱状透镜,但是并不限于此,也可适当地为球面或非球面的旋转对称透镜,超环面(toroidal)镜。In the above-described embodiment, the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 that refracts the projection light 100 from the projection lens 15 is a free-form surface lens or a lenticular lens, but it is not limited thereto, and may be a spherical or aspherical rotationally symmetric lens as appropriate. Toroidal mirrors.
还有,在上述实施方式中,通过透镜而构成配光调整机构16,但是也可通过具有凹面的反射镜而构成配光调整机构16。In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 is constituted by a lens, but the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 may be constituted by a reflecting mirror having a concave surface.
此外,在上述实施方式中,透射型屏幕17为扩散膜,但是透射型屏幕17也可由微型透镜阵列构成。由于可通过由微型透镜阵列而构成透射型屏幕17,针对透射型屏幕17的每个区域而调整从透射型屏幕17的各区域射出的图像光200的配光角的尺寸、配光方向,故可以更加良好的效率,使图像光朝向观察者。Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the transmissive screen 17 is a diffusion film, but the transmissive screen 17 may also be constituted by a microlens array. Since the transmissive screen 17 is constituted by a microlens array, the size and the light distribution direction of the image light 200 emitted from each area of the transmissive screen 17 can be adjusted for each area of the transmissive screen 17. It is possible to direct the image light toward the viewer with better efficiency.
此外,在上述实施方式中,透射型屏幕17与配光调整机构16的光轴垂直地设置,但是,也可像图6所示的那样,在第1方向X和/或第2方向Y,使透射型屏幕17相对配光调整机构16的光轴而倾斜。通过该方案,防止从HUD装置1的外部侵入的太阳光从透射型屏幕17中透射,到达光源反射镜12、光源11的情况。In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the transmissive screen 17 is arranged perpendicular to the optical axis of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16, but as shown in FIG. 6, in the first direction X and/or the second direction Y, The transmissive screen 17 is inclined with respect to the optical axis of the light distribution adjustment mechanism 16 . This configuration prevents sunlight entering from the outside of the HUD device 1 from passing through the transmissive screen 17 and reaching the light source reflector 12 and the light source 11 .
另外,投影有图像光200的反射透射面不限于车辆的挡风前窗2。投影图像光200的反射透射面也可为比如专门设置的合成器部件。In addition, the reflection-transmission surface on which the image light 200 is projected is not limited to the windshield 2 of the vehicle. The reflective and transmissive surface on which the image light 200 is projected can also be, for example, a specially provided combiner component.
在以上的说明中,为了容易理解本发明,适当省略非重要的公知的技术事项的说明。In the above description, in order to facilitate the understanding of the present invention, descriptions of unimportant known technical matters are appropriately omitted.
